Rangers in Guild Wars
Rangers in Guild Wars are sleek looking individuals who primarily use bows, but are allowed to use any of the game's other weapon classes such as swords, war hammers, axes, spears, staves, scythes, and daggers. The headgear of rangers is a mask shielding the face (similar to the appearance of "Old West" robbers). Rangers can summon nature spirits, set traps, command beasts, use a variety of combat "stances" to evade attacks or run faster, and use powerful marksmanship skills. The ranger class worships Melandru, the Goddess of Earth and Nature. Rangers have armor that has basic midlevel armor (higher than spellcaster classes, lower than warriors) and the highest elemental defense in the game.
In the Guild Battle portion of Guild Wars Player versus player rangers are known for their survivability and effectiveness as solo characters, often acting separately from the rest of the team, reflecting the hardy and cunning nature of a ranger.

Famous quotes containing the word wars:
“That doctrine [of peace at any price] has done more mischief than any I can well recall that have been afloat in this country. It has occasioned more wars than any of the most ruthless conquerors. It has disturbed and nearly destroyed that political equilibrium so necessary to the liberties and the welfare of the world.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
